Q. A candidate scores 48% marks and fails by 24 marks. Another candidate scores 60% marks and gets 48 marks more than the passing marks. The passing percentage is:
✅ Correct Answer: (B)
52%
Explanation: Difference in marks = 24 + 48 = 72 = 12% of total marks. Total marks = 72 × 100 / 12 = 600. Passing marks = 48% of 600 + 24 = 312 = 52% of 600.
